To be honest, it's not really fair to expect King to keep readers up at night with every single book he hammers out. My guess is that when it came to Revival , King's aim was to write something unsettling without all the terror that usually permeates his books. http://www.amazon.com/Revival-Novel-Stephen-King/dp/1476770395/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1458565382&sr=1-1&keywords=revival+by+stephen+king Revival is about a character named Jamie Morton who develops a friendship with Charles Jacobs, a preacher and new-age healer. Jacobs not only preaches about the miracles performed by Jesus, he pulls off a few himself using a strange form of electricity. The story begins when Jamie is just an impressionable young boy and continues into his adu

I just found this interesting site called Fiverr https://www.fiverr.com This is a great place for anyone who is looking for a unique way to gain exposure to their brand for just five bucks.  Services range from photo editing to passing out flyers on college campuses.  I decided to give it a try and had an artist named Zaza make this "painting" rendition of my headshot.

Image
They say you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover. Don't Let Anything Dull Your Sparkle by Doreen Virtue is an example of why this is true. The cover of this book is certainly enticing, but the content doesn't “sparkle” as the title would indicate.

Virtue accurately observes that people who have experienced trauma often unknowingly seek out others who have also been
